Illustrative example for the calculation of the grace period: For a statement of the period from 20th June to 20th July, the Payment Due Date would be 10th August.

June -10th August i.e. 47 days. 2. For a purchase dated 14th July, the interest - free grace period is from 18th

July to 10th August i.e. 23 days. Thus, the grace period can vary depending upon the date of purchase.
